Michael: Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a quick look at the RV Cabinet Catch and Strikes. This is going to replace the catch in your RV cabinet so that you can keep that cabinet door securely closed. You don't have to worry about it opening and slamming shut when you're hitting bumps in the road and potentially allowing the contents of that cabinet to fall out. This is going to make sure that that door stays closed no matter what terrain you're going over so that you don't have to worry about any of that.This is going to work on all styles of cabinets. So you don't have to worry about the connections working.
Main thing is probably going to be the aesthetic value, so you want to make sure that it's going to look good wherever you want to place it.This does have a brass construction, so it's going to be nice and sturdy, very reliable for you. It does have that inaudible 00:00:54 design in there, so it looks pretty fancy to me. So if you like that look, I think it's going to do a good job for you. They also include four different sized strikes to accommodate different applications. So you just use the one that works best for you.
They're also going to include the mounting screws to get all the components that you need to mount it in place. And this does come with a limited lifetime warranty. So it's nice to know they stand behind their product. You can see this is spring loaded like the original probably was to make sure that, that's easy to push in, to release, and then it will catch in place to make sure that when you push the door closed, it's going to stay closed.One thing that I will point out, the manufacturer's measurements for these strikes is going to be a little bit off in my opinion. So the best I can tell they are measuring just this vertical portion, they don't include the portion that you actually screw into your cabinet.
So they call this a five eights, this a three fourths, this a seven eights. And this a one inch. When I measure them, I'm getting closer to about seven eights of an inch. You can see I'm actually using this base portion, so mine's a little bit longer than theirs. So that's seven eights.
I'd call this one about an inch, this one about an inch and an eighth. And then this one, an inch and a quarter.So just want to give you the measurements that make the most sense to me so that you can make an informed decision on whether this is going to be the right product for you or not. And other than that measurement, I think this is going to be a great option for you, make sure that your door stays closed and it's going to add a nice look to your handle there. So if you need a new catch and strike, I would say that this is going to be a great option.That's going to complete our look at the RV Cabinet Catch and Strike. Again. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..
Good company Good service!
Quick, fast and in a hurry! Got what I ordered
They had exactly what I needed and fast shipping!!
It’s exactly what we ordered and fit perfectly in our camper
Great price, product and delivered on t ime.
I’m very happy with my purchase. The item was excellent quality and just what I needed. The service of this company is superb!
The cabinet catch was a perfect match and still works fine. Thanks for a quick shipment.
The latches were as expected, they matched the ones I needed to replace in my 98’ Casita. Great communication on the shipping
This strike was out of stock for some time, but it finally came in and was delivered. Attractive, and works well on problem cabinet door.
I decided not to use this as it ended up not being a good fit for my need. This is mostly my fault.
One thing to note is that all of the strike plates are taller than the handle, so it is not good for applications where the handle and striker are on the same plane. You cannot determine this from the information provided on the web site.
Hopefully I’ll find another use for it.
No reflection on etrailer, but these catches were / are used on older Casita Travel Trailers. They all will fail, eventually. The plastic slider wears and falls out.
But it is good to know that replacements are available, otherwise we would have a bigger problem.
Fast on time Delivery. Great products.
I had looked at a number of RV parts replacement websites and had no luck. Through a search, etrailer came up and after having good experiance buying boat trailer items from them before I thought I'd see what they offered. It was a special set back cabinet latch for a lower truck camper to wheel well area door latch. Noah explained in great detail the item I felt would work. We ordered and it fit perfectly. It shipped very fast and we had things back togeather in no time. I will deffinately order from them in the future.
Great product and fast shipping. Thank you.
Could not get the striker to pull back, can't open this way. Only got it to move by pressing the end that would be under the holder. The construction of it otherwise is good, but not usable this way.
Rv cabinet catch worked perfect and is almost an identical match to the vintage catches in my camper.
